Study Abroad

The World Affairs Council of Sacramento is currently developing a study abroad program for 2007. For an idea about how our program will work and why it will be useful to our children please consult the World Affairs Council Pittsburgh's Global Scholarship Travel Program

The World in Transition

The World in Transition (WIT) is a series of multimedia educational materials produced by the Southern Center for International Studies (SCIS) in Atlanta. The materials are distributed nationally through the World Affairs Councils of America/World in Transition Flagship Program. Each unit explores the geography, politics, economics, culture, and foreign policy of a given world region. The world regions covered include Europe, Africa, Latin America, Middle East, Russia and the other former Soviet Republics, East Asia, and South Asia. There is also a period piece on the End of the Soviet Union.
